VCI Foam
SAFEPACK VCI FOAMs are speciallyengineered, powerful protectors of expensive and delicate electricaland electronic equipments, components, ferrous/non-ferrous parts andheavy machineries from corrosion and oxidation . The unique feature ofthis product is the high load of VCI chemicals and capability to absorbmoisture, which makes it a very aggressive fighter against the menaceof probable environmental deterioration. Due to high concentration ofVCIs, it offers over 10 times more protection coverage than thetraditional VCI papers and films, making it idle for large surface andlong term protection.
CORE ELEMENTS :
Industry has been facing peculiar challenges in protection such as,
- Multi-metal Corrosion protection on a long-term basis.
- A need of a combination of cushioning & rust protection
- A need of non-messy, non-labour consuming protection for metal parts during the production life-cycle.
SAFEPACK VCI-FOAMs are designed to address all the above protectionchallenges. These Foams are flat PU Foam containing high load ofHi-tech Volatile Corrosion inhibiting chemicals. These chemicals have aproperty of sublimating & they deposit on metal surfaces forming aprotective mono-ionic layer. This layer thus offers effectiveprotection against oxidation & corrosion to ferrous &non-ferrous surfaces & hard to reach areas such as drill holes,crevices by making them inert to the action of corroding agents likehumidity, moisture, salt etc. SAFEPACK VCI FOAMs work well under anyadverse conditions including contaminants in air such as hydrogensulphide, sulphur dioxide, ammonia or acid rain.
FEATURES
- Offers protection to a wide range of multi-metals.
- Dependingon the imperviousness of the pack, protection should last up to 24months, longer tenure protection can also be designed.
- Protects metal, both through direct contact and vapor action.
- VCI Foam protects even difficult to reach areas on large machines because of its flexibility.
- Effective in polluted and humid atmosphere.
- Compatible with commonly used Oils, Greases, Paints, Rubbers etc.
- Mono-ionic VCI layer does not affect electrical /optical/mechanical surface properties.
- Compact safe to handle and apply.
- Gives protection when equipment is in storage, transit and when in operation.
- Eliminates use of labor intensive conventional methods of greasing / oiling / wiping / spraying / dipping.
- Adhesive backing allows easy & quick installation.
- Not harmful to humans and is environment friendly.
- Free of nitrites, silicones and phosphates.
- Available in customized shapes and sizes.
- Offers cushioning properties in combination with corrosion prevention.
- Protection for hard to reach areas such as drilled holes, crevices etc.
- Easy to dispose as any normal foam.
